Review on 🐣 HATCHBOX Silk PLA: Premium Filament for High-Quality 3D Printing and Additive Manufacturing by Alex Solano

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Great filament that is very difficult to print with

This filament is very difficult to process I have used a lot of Hatchbox PLA and usually use it over other colors. This usually produces fantastic results. Regardless, I can't get this thread to print smoothly. And I really want to use it because it's so great. The filament sent to me seems to be "softer" or more flexible than other PLA filaments. I wish I had a better name for it. Because of the flex, my coil has trouble going from 225C to 180C and turns are difficult. Also, I had to increase the Z layer by about 0.02mm compared to other PLA filaments. I can't recommend this thread for use, but it would be great to see if I could pinpoint the correct settings.

Pros
  • 3D printing consumables
Cons
  • No auto print
